Is there a particular reason that searching for python ports produces:

51 % port search python [...] but that tkinter isn't included in this list?

52 % port search tkinter py-tkinter python/py-tkinter 2.4.3 Python bindings to the Tk widget set

From the man page: "search: Search for an available port whose name matches a regular expression." The port name "py-tkinter" does not match the regular expression "python", so "port search python" will not output "py-tkinter". If what you're trying to do is produce a list of all ports whose name, category or description matches "python", the command would be port list | grep -i python Hope this helps, Marc
